“This podcast makes me doubt my love of other Slate productions. Am I really aligning myself with such pretentious twits? Are these really the people that are at the cocktail parties where Emily, John, and Plotz are chattering? If so, I've got to stop my social climbing.

That's a pretty good test of a quality show. I love the interplay...”Read full review »

“I, for one, love this podcast and never miss an episode. No, the stars are not experts on many subjects they discuss, but they have generally interesting things to say. Many seem to hate Metcalf. I think he's a good host for the show. He (mostly) steers the conversation in interesting...”Read full review »
